Lahiew Aid Notices 

The Treasurer of the Ladies’ Aid reports that the net 
proceeds of the Christmas Sale will exceed $185, Through 
the generosity of one of its members the price of the 
turkeys for the supper, was reduced one-third, 

The Ladies’ Aid has given the same amount of $100 to 
the Church, as in previous years, and they are giving their 
usual contribution to the Lynn Neighborhood House; to 
the Ministers’ Pension Fund; and will also contribute to 
the Roxbury Diet Mission. 

The Treasurer will be glad to receive the dime-holder 
from those who took them one year or more ago, to fill, 
and who have not yet returned them, The money is 
necessary for the providing of meat at our monthly tea 
parties, 

We hope everyone is also filling one of these dime- 
holders for next year, Anyone not provided with one,can 
have it by applying to the Treasurer of the Ladies’ Aid, 
Mrs, G. H. French, 


Lyun Neighborhood House 


Work at Lynn has started off with great possibilities. 
The new building will be a great help as the enlarged 
space has been long desired for the Sunday School, and 
for which all interested in our work will be glad. 

The Harvest Festival was a splendid success, over $500 
was made, which was doubled, Many thanks to all who 
helped. 


In the beginning of the New Year, let us ask ourselves 
if we are taking our religious responsibilities as seriously 
as we ought, There may be reasons for staying away 
from church, but let us be sure that they are good ones 
and that we are not giving too large a place to some 
duties and interests and too small a place to this one. 
Going to church fulfils a part of our duty to the Lord and 
is a help towards fulfilling our duty to our neighbor,

Our Society has recently lost one of its earliest and 
most esteemed members, Miss Mary A. Ingell, who 
passed to the other world November 28, 1916. Uniting 
with the Church in 1877 she has always been devoted to 
its interests. Quiet and unobtrusive, she was efficient and 
helpful, and many a good cause has been assisted by her 
generosity. She was a woman of the highest type of 
mind and character, and one whom it was a privilege to 
call one’s friend. To know her was to love her.

Bedford, April 23nd, 1912 
My dear Dr. Kennedy, 

I find our excursion to the "Burl: 
lington gorge" was Sunday May 6th. 1900, Williams, his 
brother, Rand, Rich, Morss, Webster and myself being of 
the Party. 

The Bedford party of which I have 
protograph was May 13th. 1900. Williams, Rand, Robinson 
Fernald, Webster, Bissell and myself and my dog. 

I hope you enjoyed today as much 
as I did. I wish we had had the afternoon weather how- 
ever for it has been «delightful here since my return 

Yours cordially,

Dear Sir:-- I thank you very much for the fine specimen of 
Bleocharis which you sent. I regret that we cannot place your name 
on the programme for the paper on Willoughby flora, but it will 
lessen our disappointment very much if we are to have the pleasure 
of seeing you here. I hope that you will cone if it is possible. 


We have the beginnings of a moss herbarium which is made up largely 


; Co) a a P > 
of Vermont specimens selected by Mr. Pringle, Dr. Blanchard, Mrs. 


Britton and Mr. Grout. I shall be very glad indeed to receive the 
mention, and I trust that if you come up you wil] 
find something among our duplicates that will be of interest or 
value to you. In case you do not Come I will send you a copy of 
a list of our duplicates in the hopes that you may make some 
selections from them. 
ZOurS truly,

Recent Boranrcar Lirerature.—Following the custom of 
last year, there will be an exhibit of recent books pertaining to 
botany and bird studies. Mr. H. J. Shanley, book dealer, and 


the librarians of the Fletcher and Billings libraries have promised 


. - Ay 
generous co-operation in this, and members are requested to con- 


tribute for the occasion any especially attractive books. In ac- 
cord with the suggestion of one of our members, the current 
botanical magazines will be included. 

This exhibit table will be in charge of a committee of the 
U. VY. M. Botanical Club. 


Tur AnNuat Rott, Cats has been placed earlier in the pro- 
gram so as to give it the prominent place to which its interest 
entitles it. The program has been so balanced as to permit more 
time for it and it is hoped that each member present will make 


the success of the Roll Call a matter of personal interest. 


Tue Annual Duxs of twenty-five cents should be paid to 
the Secretary at this time. Owing to a depleted treasury the 
officers have not as yet considered it justifiable to republish the 
membership list and constitution. There are numerous requests 
for this and it is hoped to proceed with it as soon as the financial 


conditions permit, 


The U. V. M. Boranicat Crus welcomes visiting botan- 
ists and invites them to the herbaria or to other points of interest 
about the college at any time. Members of this club, wearing 
badges, will be in attendance at the herbaria and at the book 
exhibit and others will be ready, upon request, to act as guides 


about the buildings or campus.

will be the [/lustrated Lecture on Kirds, by Mr. Henry ‘T, Oldys of Washington, 
D. C. ; probably the Annual B siness Meeting and Koll Call will occur at the 
opening of the Saturday morning session. 


A numberof titles have been received by the Local Committee but there 
is stillr om on he program for others. Please promptly report any such, either 
on the inclosed blank or by letter to Miss Isabel M. Paddock, Chairman of the 
Local Committee, St. Johnsbury, Vt. 


Remember the Annuil Roll Call. Every member who attends should be 
prepared to respond at that wlth some item or suggestion. Any non-attendants 
who wish so to do, may communicate items either through the Chairman of the 
Local Committee or the Secretary, 


The Jast summer meeting, held at Mt. Mansfiel!, was greatly enjoyed. 


The sentiment ‘here expressed was favorable to holding the next one at Pownal, 
which is easily accessible trom Bennington and has an flora of peculiar interest, 
The question will come up for final decison at this winter meeting. Any sug- 
gestious relative to this or future summer meetings will therefore b+ timely. 


Another matter of importance r lates to the next number of the Bulletin 
of the Club. The second number of this should be published as soon as possible 
after the winter meeting. ‘lo secure this the Committee on Publication should 
have been reorganized at the summer meeting. Sin e this was overlooked, the 
present Committee make the fol'owing suggestions and trust that they will meet 
with such prompt responses as will facilitate the work of she next Committee. 


The highest success of the Bulletin depends upon the interest of each and 
every member of the Club. It should contais not merely a report of the organi- 
zation and meetings of the Club, but be a channel through which members com- 
manicate numerous items of local botanical interest, reports of new stations 
for plants, stimulating questions. suggestions for new lines of Club activity, dis- 
cussion of the merits of places for future meetings, comments upon helpful 
botanical books or methods, offerings of or requests for exchanges. If each 
member would contribute one item along any of these or similar lines, the value 
of the Billetin would be vastly increased. Such items should in general appear 
with the nune of the contributor, but where preferred they may be anonymous. 


Will you not help in this new movement by sending at least one such 
item ? 
Be sure in any case to return the inclosure promptly. 
L. R. JONES, Secretary.

DR. HARRIS KENNEDY 
286 WARREN STREET 
ROXBURY, MASS. 


Dec. 27, 1913. 
Dr. George G. Kennedy, 
Readville, Mass. 
Dear Sir: 

Me. William L, W. Field, Chairman of the Mosquito Committee, 
has asked me toe take charge of eoting a balance of 130 needed 
to complete the work undertaken by this Town Committee. The situa- 

in brief is as follows: 

The Metropolitan Park Board has ditched and drained their 
own salt marshes. the city officials of Quincy have given assurances 
that when they receive word from Milton, they will take up the ques- 
tion of their own marshes, Only a small area is left to the Town of 
Wilton, which can be dene for 9975, of which the Committee now has 
$845, ore than half of this has been donated by tiilton resident 
of the Milton Hill District. The rush Hill + Tilue Hill District 
has a vital interest in this matt as the Committee each year has 
collected salt marsh mosquitoes in the southewesterly end of the 
Township. 

For two reasons this matter has been kept from the Warrant 

and the asking of an appropriation from the Town. 

p on it is thought we have too many town committees and that 
instead of this Comaittee holding over or another being appointed, this 

might be raised privately and the Committee discharged. 
2g. The half that we already have will revert to the Town 
unless we can complete the fund and the work prior to the larch meet- 
ing. 
Will you Kindly send Mr, William L. W, Fheld, Canton Ave., 


Milton, °10, to complete this work? 


Yours truly,

Oct. 23, 1908. Assumptions M.K. Trip, Dictated by 
§.K. and acceded to by M.K. 


In all cablegrams within the Kennedy family, the 10th 
edition of the Adama Cable Codex will be used until further notice. 
In any message it will be assumed that no reply is desired unless 
it is expressly asked for. This is rendered necessary by the fact 
that often a cablegram will be sent from the place where the sender 
will not be at the time a reply could reach him. The Massachusetts 
address of the Kennedy family is "Meddise Boston, America", although 
there may be times when the word "America® can be omitted. The 
address of M.K. at any given place is "Milken", which she will regis- 
ter at any place where she expects a reply to her previously-sent 
cablegran. Similarly, S.K. will use "Sinken.” 

Both these words are given with the idea that the family 
may feel that Mildred Kennedy and Sinclair Kennedy are safer in 
given ifistances, but such precaution will not ever be necessary. 

In cabling, M.K. and S.K. will not sign their names, be- 
cause the family will know which one the cablegram is from, on ac- 
eount of its originating point, which always is designated on the 
delivery slip of the cablegran. In cabli as to forwarding letters 
from Boston, M.K. and S.K. will state the date up to which letters 
may leave Boston to such address, because M.K. and §.K. will know 
better than people in Boston how lomg it will thke to have the 
mail journey completed, e.g. "Meddisec, Boston, America, Alpaca 
Singapore 30" (6 words at say $1.24 each) means "Please send letters 
to Singapore (at such Singapore address as I may have stated in my 
letter, and if I have named no address, then to the Post Office 
marked PosteRestante) till the mails close in Boston the 30th of 
this month in which I am cabling.” If the 30th refers to the 50th 
of next month, the name of such month will be stated, e.g. "Alpaca 
Singapore October 30." 

The family will not expect cablegrams on family amniversa~ 
ries, nor will S.K. nor M.K. expect such. We can all write what 
we need in plenty of time. The tendency of a contrary course is 
to postpone a proper cablegram such as one that you or they are all 
well and state a certain new address, until the anniversary comes 
around, when it may be too late to state the business part of the 
message. Besides, sentiment at $1.50 a word, and the address extra, 
suggests second thoughts the morning after. 

S.K. and M.K. will avoid saying when or where they are to 
be, unless he or she is certain beyond a doubt. ~ This is on the 
idea that people at home think you have blown up if you do not keep 
your schedule, and it is not only hard to arrive on time, but you 
often want to change your mind. 

On departure from any stated mail Pappa iterys S.K. or 
M.K. will give the repository some future address, 80 hat letter- 
writers will know that any letters they send will ultimately reach 
or be forwarded to the addressee. Postage is 5c. for the first 
ounce and 3c. for each succeeding one almost everywhere in this 
world. When in doubt stick on Sc. more. 


S.K. and M.K. will not expect to get letters oftener than 
6 weeks or 2 months apart, although oftentimes the same address will 
permit of more frequent deliveries. When M.K. approaches Singa- 
pore she will race her letters both ways by putting on "via Colombo*® 
and “via Hong Kong" respectively. This will make her feel childish 
and happy. 

Presents by mail or express to or from persons in foreign 
parts are expensive nuisances to the respective recipients on ac- 
count of reforwarding charges, customs annoyances, and in the case 
of the traveller, lack of space in trunks. Short letters or 
postals are quite sufficient. The shorter and oftener the better,- 
poth ways: time is long but postage is comparatively cheap. 

If M.K. loses her letter of credit, American Express 
checks or Cook's notes, she will cable Meddise, so that payment 
on them can be stopped. S.K. has a list of the numbers on these 
pieces of paper, and has given the list to H.K. 

In case of any difficulty M.K. will go to the British 
Consul. If there is no British Consul, or if she has heard good 
report of the American Consul, she will go to the latter. 

People who leave home for a long trip enjoy themselves so 
much that they forget that those at home look forward to certain 
dates. The moral of this is that those at home should not so 
look forward. 

Amendments to these "Assumptions" will be made by parties 
concerned only on grave provocation, and will state such amendment s 
two months before using them. There are 6 copies of these "As- 
sumptions" distributed to the following persons: G.G.K., H.K., 
E.G.B., M.A.T., M.K. and S.K. 


Riverton, Nd. 
March 4th, 1914, 


My dear Father: 

Here I am all safe and sound and I had a most interesting trip 
down here. In the first place when I sat down in my seat in the train yester— 
day I looked across the isle and there sat Mary Kellogg. You and Auntie 
will-remember her as the girl who gave that delightful entertainment at our 
Opera house the winter before last; you all met her after it was over, Do 
yom pemember her, and the dance, it was a Grecian thing and we all agreed 
very lovely. she was going to New Yonk to give the same thing there some 
time in April, and she is going to train two sets of girls for it, ow a 
set of New York society ghris and them the other set is of the hard working 
1 oy It will bé a very interesting experience for her, and she was 
much nleased with the order, 

When I reached New York, (By the way the snow did not show itself till 
within half an hour of the city.) I went in the trolley to the Penn. Sta, 
there they told me the Trenton and Riverton trains were running alright, s 
I called Emma ud on the phone and took the 4.028 for Trenton. We started 
on time, and just as soon as we came out of the tunnel the devastation of 
the. storm beqan to show itself, the wires all along the track were broken, 
twisted, and”blowing in the wind. The snow became deeper and deeper as we 
went on, but the worst of the storm was between Elizabeth and Trenton, In 
that region telegraph pole after pole was snapped right off and the pole 
must in many cases have fallen across the R.R. tracks, I truly never saw 
anything like it in my life! The snow lay in very high drifts, someplaces 
I should think as deep as fifteen or twenty feet. We made however very 
good time till we were within about half an hour of Trenton and I was just 
congratulating myself on the fact that I was going to make my local train 
at Trenton and get here in splended time,---when the delay began. We just 
stopped and stood there then went forward like a snail, then stopped for a 
long rest and started forward at the same pace. We reached Trenton at 7.50 
instead of 5.36 when we were due, there was no train from Trenton dow here 
till the 8.50, I had written Florence that I would come that day, and mailed 
the post card Monday morning, and she received it this morning, From the 
Trenton station I called Florence up on the phone and was delighted to find 
the line was working, I told her I was coming on the 8.50 due here at 9,44 
but not to stay up for me as I might be late in getting here, she said the 
local trains had been runnung very nearly on time all day and that she 
thought I would havenno trouble in coming through the rest of the way. I 
was only ten minutes late reaching Riverton and walked right up here to the 
house. The walking here was very bad ror the snow had melted all day and 
frozen just as little so that there was deep water under neath the thin ice. 

I found Florence and her Mother pretty well, Lillian her girl who went 
home and did not return to Florence has married a man down there at home 
and s0 of course Florence has lost her, she is not altogether sorry,for 
Lillian devoted as she was was far from perfect. She has no girl at present 
and is not going to get one, a woman comes in twice a week to do the washing 
and heavy cleaning. The house is very small and little work to care for. 
Kenneth has Lillians room as a work room and is too happy for words, J do 
really think it is just as well during the time her Nother is here for them 
to get along in this way, then when Edwin returns she will get as good a one 
as she can lind. The work i5 not hard if you do not make it so. Cooking 
on & gas range is just fun, and I can help in many little ways and we are 
so much freer in every way to have ho other person in this tiney little house 
I think Florence is very wisé and enjoy the "work" as she calls it, so much

Riverton, New Jersey. 


March 17th. 1914, 


My dear Father; 

I was very sorry not to be able to get a letter off to you on Sun- 
day, but I went out Saturday to Cynwyd and spent the Sunday with the Hamil- 
tons, Emma was on for the Sunday so we had a very good time all of us to- 
gether, Sunday afternoon we went to the exibition at the Acadamy of Fine 
Arts; Marie Page has two pictures there that are very fine, one is a 
glorious portrait of Anna Ladd, Maynard's wife, and it is a superb thing. 
She is standing, so that her side face and profile show, and holds in her 
hand a clay or it may be bronze model, and is contemplating this. I never 
realized she was so fine a looking woman or that she had so much power abot 


her, her dress is a rich shade of goft brick red, and the warmth and master 


fulness in the picture is something very striking. Her other picture is 


called "A Tenement Mother" and is a charming piece of work. A young mother 
garb of a working woman (put of course en attisite garb) and holding 
in her arms a beautirul cniia of about a year old, and standing by her side 
so that just the side of her face and tne 11ttle profile show is a 1ittie 
zoldaen haired girl of three or there anpouts, ine Mother is feeding the 
paby, and the child is watching then, the Mother has that glorious. shade of 
red-gold hair, and the sunlight falls upon the picture in such @ way as to 
bring out the gold, in both the childs hair end the Mothers, yet they are 
very different shades of gold. Marie's colors are always so wonderful, 
there is never anything negative about her tones, So many of the pigtures 
there were those soft washed out pinks, yellows, blues and reds; many of 
the ‘pictures were far more agtractive I thought in the black and white 
productions in the catalogue than in the origignals, but this is never true 


of any of Maries. 


Floremce, Alice Herr and I are going to the Elmendorf Lectures, I did not 
arrive in time to hear or rather see the first of the series, but last week 
was "Western India" and he covered just the region that we went over. His 
pictures are very fine indeed, I think he must have a bi-focal lens, for his 
figures stand out in a remarkable manner. This Friday he gives Java, and 
the week following he gives an extra lecture on Egypt, we have four tickets 
for that and hope Georgeanna Mendenhall, WLli be’ able to jein us too, I have 
not seen her yet, but am going to lunch with her tomorrow. 

Florence receives very good word fwom Edwin, he has had a delightful time 


AMAICA 
in Kiresten going all about the island with some very interesting people whom 


he met, they now have left him <s they are soon to return to New York, but he 


has grown so fond of the island that he has not as yet made 

jeaving. Florene is better than she was last week, she 8 very tired 
after her trip to the sanitorium with her Father, and for a days felt and 
looked badly, but she rested up, and we go to bed early and are out of doors 
all we can be, so she is better, today she said she felt perfectly well, and & 
she certainly seems more like her old self than she has for some time. The 
boys are gsplended, so full of fun and so bright. Ken is all the time making 
things, and he is so much interested in how other people make things, 

Please thank Auntie for her good letter that came this morning telling me 
of your Sunday doings and of Frances, I am so glad she is better, poor girl 
she certainly has had a hard time, I do hope"Deede" will be able to return 
soon, for she is so splended there in the home with the other children. 

I am delighted Father dear that you enjoy this type-writer, I do not see 
how I lived so long a time without it. Perhans you will find this double 
spacing more easy to read, than the other letter, I almost always use this 
spacing when I write letters and do not know why I happened to use the narrow 
Sh my ether Lepies. he you, 


We are beginning to have real spring weather here in spite of the fact that 


the snow has not all melted yet, they had a most unusual lot of snow this 


winter, the first week after I arrived every storm we had, and we had one 
almost every other day, was snow, but the soil has so much sand in it that it 
Gries up very quickly, we are hoping to be able to use our wheels very soon. 
IT am sorry that you missed seeing both Mrs, and Mr, Sprague and also the 


Cunninghams, but they must have been much disappointed to have missed you.

Florence sends a sreat deal of love to you and Auntie as does also Mrs Barron

ust great that I can be here with them, I doubt if ve any of us will 


ever know just what might have happened if Florence had had to 

Mother after the strain that the early part of the winter was 

flakes a difference having another here, and esbvecially one who understane 
the condition as well as I do. We are all very. ypy and very we@l and re-

joice in the good news from Edwin.

Well Father dear write me when you feel like it and tell me the Milton 
news, tell Auntie my next long type written letter will be addressed to her. 
I think of you both very often and shall rejoice when the warm spring weather 
reaches Milton and you can sit out of doors, 

my love to all, and thank Edith for her note that came this noon 
that Frances is better. By the way if you think of it Father 
will you please ask Hal if Frances received Tagore's pook I sent to her? I 
just hope it was not lost. in the mail.

TREE SPRAYING. 
Tree Warden Has Made Arrangements 
for Protection Against Insect Pests. 


This year I have let the contract 
for spraying the street trees to Cortez 
H. Wood. He is to do it as soon as 
the leaves are out enough to get good 
results, and this will check canker 
worms, elm leaf beetles, gypsy and 
brown tail moths, and indeed all in- 
sec.s which feed on the foliage. 

Messrs, H. L. Frost & Co., who have 
done the Milton Town spraying for 
several years did not want to do it this 
year, but they are I understand will- 
ing to do it for their old customers. 

‘this letter is to call attention to the 
fact that all arrangements for spray- 
iny should be made at once. Those 
\Wiio Wish me to attend to it for them 
should write me without delay. Any 
who prefer may of course write direct 
to Cortez H. Wood, 11 Vancouver 
street, Boston, or to H. L. Frost & Co., 
6 Beacon street, Bos on, or to whatever 
reliakle firm they may w.sh to em- 
ploy. 

In any case where Tam to attend 
to spraying, unless a_ preference is 
stated, 1 shall get Mr. Wood to do it, 
as he has undertaken the Town spray- 
ing with the understanding that he 
is to get what work he can on private 
places. 

I feel very strongly that all skoald 
unite in spraying as only by a gen- 
eral application of this method can 
best results be obtained. There is 
e, ery reason for supposing that in- 
sects of all kinds are to be numerous 
this year, as a canker worm moth is 
already flying, gypsy moth eggs are 
in all directions, brown-tail caterpil- 
lars beginning to crawl. 

Therefore do not delay, but signify 
your intention as soon as you see this. 
The territory can be more systematical- 
ly covered if you write direct to me, 
as if I find an occasional place unpro- 
tected I shall make a special appeal 
so that those who do sp-ay may get the 
best results. 

I would add that as the street spray- 
ing here is to be more general than 
ever before, there will be not question 
as to whether the apparatus can be 
availed of in any particular section. 
And I also wish to recommend every- 
one to set up his own outfit in propor- 
tion of course to the size of his real 
estate holdings.

Dear Doctor Kennedy: 

When I received 2 notice the other day of the work for the coming 
year of the New Cngland Botanical Club, it occurred to me thet with the next notice I 
should probably have a personal letter from Rand asking what our committee had to re- 
port in regard te the Park Flora. I am writing this same letter te the other three 
members of the cemmittee te find eut whether anyones has anything at vresent in mind to 
report, and whether it is going to be worth while to get together in the shape of a 
meeting of the committee. 

The mertings of the committee are always interesting to me and I hope to the 

others, but, of course, most of us sre reasonsbly busy, and possibly if there is nothing 


srecial to say it would be a comfort to some or all not to take the time which a meeting 


would require. 


Sincerely yours,

Dear Doctor Kennedys 
Since I wrote you in regard to the repert on the gypsy moth parasite, 

I have heard that the report came out in July, though just when it was generally dis= 
tributed I do not knowe I mention this because in asking for it at the library you 
may have better success if they realize that it is not quite so new as I had at first 
suggestede 

In regerd to removing the maple of which you speak, I co not know whem to 
recemmend for such worke I understand that sometines building movers do this work quite 
well, and they certainly ought to be able to de so if the digging is done by someone 
elsee I am very sorry not to be of more use in this event, but I have never had meh 
experience in moving large trees, ani, in fact, have never been mich ef a believer in 
thet department of the arte

Dear Doctor Kennedy? 

The other day I spoke to you of DreHoward's pamphlet on the importa~ 
tion of the parasife of the gypsy mothe I find that the firs? supply is exhausted, 
and they tell me at the office here that one copy was sent to the Milton Public Library, 
where I think you would be able to borrow it, and I am quite sure that you would find 
it both interesting and valuables) It is miblished "Bulletin 91, Bureau of Entonology," 


and should have been received at the library within the last six or seven dayse)

I have looked up my water bills fer the past ten years and find that 
they vary fran $157.13 to $221.75 for the entire year, and that the average is $188. I 
think this will give you the figures thet you want, although you can imagine that they 
have varied more or less from year to year owihg to difference in rainfall. On the 
other hand, they de net seem to decrease owing to the slight reduction in price of water, 


the last being probably balanced by the formers

Dear Doctor Kannedy: 

The Library of the Massachusetts Horticultural Society has grown to 
be ome of the best collections on horticulturs in the world. It contains some twenty 
thousand (20,000) bound volumes. The last catalogue was printed in 1873, sinee which 
date many most important works have been added. 

It is now proposed to make a permanent record of this collection by printing 
a new catalogue. This will be in two volumes divided under author and subject. I¢ 
will be a valuable reference book in itself, much in demand in horticultural libraries 
the world over, and it will greatly increase the use of our own Library. 

It will cost three eben dollars ($3,000) to print the catalogue. The 
Society has appropriated fifteen hundred dollars ($1,500), and it is hoped that fifteen 
persons may be found willing to give one hundred dollars ($100) each to make up the 
necessary amount. 

The new catalogue will be on sale at ten dollars ($10), and a copy will be 
given to every subscriber of ten dollars ($10) or more. I4 is not expected to be ready 
for about a year from the date of this letter. It will be issued under thse supervision 
of Prof.Charles §.Sargent, whose facilities for compiling such » work are well known. 


Complimentery copiss will be sent to kindred societies. 


I hope very much that you will be willing to be one of the fifteen to sub- 


scribe one hundred dollars ($100) each.

Your letter of the 15th inst., enclosing check of three hundred 
dollars for the Arnold Arboretum Endowment, was duly reeeived, and would have 


had an earlier acknowledgment but that my offies was upset in the process of being 


re~-painted, and so everything has had to wait during that process. 


MreHanry Hunnewell is condueting this eampaign, and the last time that 
I saw him he reported that he was making very good progress, but that it looked 
@ little doubtful of our getting the whole of our three hundred thousand dollars 
whioh we set cut to get, although we shall be not very far short of it. 

Thanking you very mush for your eontribution, I am,
